Each year, the Wisconsin Maritime Museum inspires tens of thousands of visitors with exhibits that tell the stories of the region’s maritime heritage and its priceless natural resources.  The Wisconsin Maritime Museum is home to more than 15,000 maritime artifacts and exhibits; it’s a nationally recognized Smithsonian affiliate; the largest maritime museum on the Great Lakes; and the museum’s fully restored WWII submarine, USS Cobia, is a National Historic Landmark.  Please consider making a donation today.
